Old Higher Ed - Study Abroad

In partnership with The Student Travels, Languages Canada has created a convenient, all-inclusive, and worry-free Safe Arrival and Quarantine package for international students that includes:

• A 14-night quarantine hotel stay upon arrival in your destination city, at discounted rates
• 3 meals per day delivered to your hotel room for the duration of your quarantine stay
• Private, COVID-safe transportation from the airport to your hotel
• Comprehensive 4-week guard.me health insurance plan with COVID-19 coverage (Extensions can be made through your institution of study or online at www.guard.me under Apply for Insurance at a cost of $5.00 CAD per day)
• Access to mental wellness counselling services through Keep.me SAFE by guard.meCares for the duration of your quarantine stay
• A Canadian phone number and SIM card for your mobile device for 1 month, including 5GB of data, unlimited Canada-wide calling, and unlimited international text and picture messaging
• All necessary Study Safe documentation to ensure you are fully informed of travel and arrival requirements and have a smooth entry process into Canada

Optional Add-On Flight Package

Along with your Safe Arrival and Quarantine package, you can book your flight to Canada through Study Safe Corridor TRAVEL SAFE, which offers multiple benefits:

• Special discounted airfare reserved exclusively for students booking through Study Safe Corridor TRAVEL SAFE
• Booking services through a certified travel agent from your port of departure to your final destination in Canada
• 24-7 travel support, available in multiple languages

By choosing the Study Abroad Package, you are ensuring a smooth entry into Canada and that your mandatory 14-day quarantine period upon arrival is as safe, comfortable, affordable – and worry-free – as possible.

A Safe Arrival and Quarantine Package provides for:

Your safety

Through every step of your arrival and quarantine process, services are provided with scrupulous respect for COVID-19 public health and safety protocols, from your airport transfer to your in-room meal delivery.

Your physical and mental health

Your quarantine package includes a comprehensive 4-week guard.me Canada insurance plan that provides for full payment, without co-insurance or deductibles, for doctor’s visits and hospitalizations for medically required urgent care, including positive tested COVID-19 coverage, as well as for paramedical care, medicines, and urgent dental care, that occur during your coverage period. Additionally, mobileDOCTOR by guard.meCARES provides access to doctors, Canada wide, on your phone, tablet, or computer anytime, anywhere 24/7. This service can provide prescription drug scripts delivered to your closest pharmacy.

We also recognize that self-isolating indoors for two weeks can seem like a daunting prospect, which is why your quarantine package includes access to mental wellness counselling in your preferred language, with counsellors who understand your culture, through Keep.me SAFE by Guard.meCARES, as well as The Wellness and Learning Initiatives Program by guard.meCARES which offers a unique learning experience for individuals by building awareness around mental health and wellness through access to our website of specially designed pre-recorded webinars to meet your specific concerns.

Your ability to connect

Included in your quarantine package is a Canadian phone number (emailed to you prior to your departure from your home country) and SIM card (delivered to your hotel in Canada). You will need a Canadian phone number to complete arrival forms at the airport once you land in Canada. The government of Canada requires a Canadian phone number for ANYONE entering the country as they may contact you by phone during your quarantine period to check on your status.

Your peace of mind

As a not-for-profit representative body, Languages Canada’s mission is to promote quality, accredited English and French language education in Canada.

In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, this includes supporting our members by working with immigration, border, education, and public health authorities, as well as travel, accommodation, insurance, and mobile communications service providers, to welcome international students in a responsible manner that greatly reduces the risk of transmission of COVID-19.

Languages Canada members are committed to offering international students safe and competitively-priced means of entering Canada and beginning their academic journeys, and to ensuring the health and safety of Canadians.
